Psychiatric Assessment

This service is completed at your first visit with the clinician.  Each individual receives a careful initial screening which includes obtaining  a working knowledge of the client's family, social and medical history,  specific symptoms, treatment history, current situational status, and current medical status.

We anticipate that you will find your involvement in treatment to be beneficial to you.  In order to maximize the effectiveness of your intervention it will be important for you to demonstrate a willingness to honestly discuss your symptoms, thoughts, feelings and behaviors with your clinician.  The goal of working together is to enhance your ability to deal with factors contributing to your present problems.  Depending on your specific needs, your treatment plan may include the need for psychotherapy or medication management or a combination of both.  Follow-up medication monitoring is provided by the same clinician as needed to ensure early recognition of factors indicating a need for medication dosage adjustments or a medication change all together. If you would like to schedule a new patient appointment, please contact our office at (941) 488-8884.

Evaluation and Management Services including Medication Managment

Our clinicians provide ongoing E&M and medication management utilizing the most current standards of practice in the field of psychiatry.  Medications are selected based on the awareness that each individual has a unique biological makeup that is more or less responsive to different classes of medications and medications within the respective class being used.  Ongoing monitoring of an individual's response to his or her medication(s) provides early recognition of favorable and/or unfavorable responses to medications...so that changes, dosage adjustments, or education interventions can be initiated efficiently to achieve the desired therapeutic effect in a way that minimizes discomfort and maximizes positive results.

We encourage you to ask your clinician about the newest developments in the field and what medications have or will emerge in the near future addressing your treatment needs.  If you would like to request an E&M / Medication management session with one of our clinicians, please call our office to schedule an appointment.  This session is 15-25 minutes in length.
